Setting a timetable for scheduling intervals for meetings.

I am a teacher and guidance counsellor and I use Teams to schedule appointments with students when not in class. Our timetable is in 40 minute increments, e.g. 9:00 am to 9:40 am up until 4:00 pm with a 15 minute and 45 minute break within that time. Is it possible to have my Teams "know" these times so I don't have to spend so much time weekly changing every appointment from 9:00 am - 9:30 am to 9:40 am. It adds a long time to the weeks scheduling and I would love if Teams could "learn" my timetable - perhaps if AI is added to this app, then it could begin recognising the patterns people use and suggest 40 minutes for me for example.

    Hello Phil OBrien

    Good day to you and thank you for your post in the Microsoft community.

    I am truly sorry for the inconvenience this issue has caused you. Based on the description, I understand your concern regarding scheduling meeting interval in increment of 40 minutes. It is a great suggestion to have machine learning mechanisms that would recognizing the daily patterns people use to schedule meeting and suggest 40 minutes instead of 30 minutes or 1 hour. For now, this can be achieved in Microsoft Bookings if you Set up a shared booking page but students will need to book according to your availability.

    We do understand your concern about this feature that how it helps you to improve your efficiency in such daily busy work schedule but as it is related with Teams Calendar product design, so it is strongly recommended to submit your valuable feedback directly to Microsoft product development team by either go to Help from your dedicated App > submit Feedback or by posting on Ideas · Community (microsoft.com) for feature requests.
